Willin Posted March 1, 2006 Report Posted March 1, 2006 (edited) Hiya - I tried shielding my fender yngwie malmsteen signature strat as per the instructions at guitarnuts.com. The only problem is that after wire everything to spec, it is still not grounded! I am in the process of troubleshooting. One possible problem may be that my 5 way pickup selector is wired slightly differently than the schematic on guitarnuts. I wired the Stew Mac selector by following the instructions that came with it. I believe it is working correctly, but I was wondering if you all think that this would be a problem? Sorry I am very new to this so forgive my newbiness. Here is a quick drawing I made of how my selector is wired: Edited March 1, 2006 by Willin Quote
JoeAArthur Posted March 1, 2006 Report Posted March 1, 2006 Well, I didn't know about the stew-mac 5-way, but I do know that the stew-mac 3-way has the common terminals opposite of CRL or OAK switches. If your switching seems to be working, then the only way that would be so would be that opposite corner common terminal thingie also applies to the 5-way. Why do you say your shielding ain't grounded? What leads you to that conclusion? Quote
ebun Posted March 2, 2006 Report Posted March 2, 2006 i thought u meant shielding, as in adding copper paint or tape to line the inside otherwise you mean the type of wire your using is shielded? Quote
